i s 0 OMAHA LANDMARK REMOVED Manl's 01d Undertaking Establishment As- sociated with Many Gruesome Memories, WAS USED AS A MORGUE FOR MANY YEARS laly ¢ Peo- ed Through n Years With the moving of Maul's undertakiog establishment from 1419 Farnam street, to its new howe in the Sheeley block, the for- mer address loses its identity as one of the oldest and most interesting landmarks in Omaha. Since 1967 that number has been associated In the public mind with coffin- trimming and with the memories, gruesome or tender, of the preparing bodies for thelr last sleep. Until a comparatively recent date it was recognized as the public morgue. The remains of all pereons who had met with & violent death, whether murder, suicide or accident, were taken to Maul's. Inquests were held there. Unidentified bodies lay in state there to be inspected by morbidly eurious throngs and wept over by hysteri- cal women. It will be years before No. 1419 will entirely lose its somber traditions of black crape, mystery, grief and death Elfas Gish, the veteran coffin-trimmer, has besn employed at Maul's since 1875, and Ris memory is rich In the details of scores of crimes and disasters which have oc- cured in Omaha in that quarter of a cen- tury. With the aid of his daily record book, he has furnish—the following data book he has furnished the following data helped to hadle until January 1, 1876, sald Be, “‘but that year the house turned out 629 coffins. . These were not for use in Omaha exclusively, but were delivered throughout the counties of Douglas, Sarpy and Wash- fogton. There was no jobbing house for undertaker's supplies in Omaha those days. The largest dally sale we ever had was in June, 1579, when we responded to four teen calls. Deaths in most of these casos had resulted from cholera infantum.

I e The Welght of Evidence And the evidence of weight both go to show that the sick who gain in health gain in flesh. The only gain in weight which is unhealthy is the gain which comes from an accumulation of flabby fat. Loss of flesh is one of the foremost signs of failing health. If you have lost weight and are gaining health by medical treatment, you will gain in flesh and the scales will tell the tale. puscles of health. Many discases remote from the stomach are cured by the use of “Golden Medical Discovery,” because such diseases have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and its allied organs of digestion and nutrition. The whole body (and each separate organ of it), depends for strength on the nourishment extracted from féod. When the stomach only partly extracts the clements of nourish- ment from the food eaten, then the body is only partly fed. In as far as the organs lack nourishment they are starved, and starvation means weakuness, Hence “weak” heart, “weak” nerves, “weak” or sluggish liver, and other “weak ” organs are cured when the “weak ” stomach is cured and made strong again by the use of “Golden Medical Discovery. GAINED FIFTY POUNDS. Mrs. Mary E. Lewis, of Tanner, Gilmer Co., W. Va., writes: “I will always recommend Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, ‘Favorite Prescription’ and * Pleasant Pellets,’ for they ‘cured me when doctors and other medi- cines failed. For fifteen years 1 suffered untold misery. When I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's medicines, 1 had ;iiven up all hope of ever getting well. I could not lie down to sleep, and everything I ate would almost cramp me to death. Was very nervous and could hardly walk across the room. 7 only weighed minely pounds when 1 com- menced taking these medicines six years ago ; / now weigh one hundred and forty ponnds, and am having better health than ever before. My friends all say they can hardly believe that 1 am the same person ; afler beiug sick so long 1 have changed 1o be yobust and rosy cheeked. " 1 have taken fifteen bottles of * Discovery,’ fifteen of the * Prescription * and fifteen of the Pellets.’ I take great pleasure in recom- mending {mr medicine to the sick for I know that if it had not been for them I would not have been living to-day.” There is no alcohol in “Golden Medical Discovery and it contains no opium, nor other narcotic. It is not a stimulant, imparting a false strength, but a real flesh-forming, body-building medicine. Of course, the medicine does not build the body or make flesh, no medicine can do that. But the “Discovery ” curcs diseases of the stomach and digestive and nutritive systems, and enables the assimilation of food by which alone flesh is formed and strength regained. If you are encouraged to try “Golden Medical Discovery ” do not be put off with an imitation or substitute medicine, such as some dealers will offer for the sake of a little more profit, claiming that it is “just as good.” There is nothing just as good as Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery for the cure making glands, so that the body is supplied with an | of discases of th. stomach and other organs of diges- increased flow of pure blood, rich in the red cor- | tion and nutrition. e ———————————————————————————————————————————————— THOSE WHO WEIGH WELL e sdvantage of medioal and hyglenic knowledge for the proteotion of health will be eager to possess a copy of Dr. Plerce’s Common Sense Medical Adviser.

One of the notable results of the use of Dr. Pierce’s | Golden Medical Discovery is a gain of flesh, evi- denced by an increase in weight. Weight is propor- tioned to height, and every healthy person has a normal weight which is in exact proportion to the stature. When the weight falls below this normal proportion to height it is a sign of failing health. Insurance companies recognize this fact and they refuse insurance whenever there is a marked disparity between height and weight. The reason for this refusal is based upon the fact that when the weight falls below the normal it shows that the body is not being adequately nourished. The food eaten to sustain life is not being properly digested and assimilated. And because the vital powers of the body depend upon the assimilation of the nutriment extracted from food, it follows that whenever there is a failure in digestion and assimi- lation, there is also a loss of vital force. For these | reasons a oure of diseases of the stomach and organs | of digestion and nutrition is marked by a gain in weight. GAINED TWENTY POUNDS IN TWO MONTHS. , I wish to say to tiic world that Dr. Pierce's Golden Med- ical Discovery has proved a great blessing to me,” writes Ellen E. Bacon, of Shutesbury, Franklin Co., Mass., “as I firmly believe I should be in a very bad state now if I had not taken it. Prior to September, 1897, I had doctored for my stomach trouble for several years, going through a course of treatment without any real benefit. In Septem- ber, 1806, I had very sivk spells and grew worse; could eat but little. I commenced in September, 1897, to take Dr. Pierce's medicine and in a short time I could eat and work. 1 have gained twenty pounds in two months.” GAINED FIFTY-SEVEN POU.
